“What do you mean?”

“It’s been over a month. There’s no way he could have survived as Elvira’s blood slave. She must have turned him.”

“He would have told me.”

“Maybe he intends to tell you when you meet. You can’t go see him. I won’t allow it.”

“I’m not asking your permission.” She slid out of bed, thinking it was time to get dressed. A woman could not survive on sex alone. Breakfast was in order, even if it was two in the afternoon. “I’m going to see him.”

She tugged a loose sundress over her body and took off.

“Then I’m coming with you.”

Heloise was not in the kitchen, and Bella was glad for that. She wanted an apple, and a few minutes to think about her friend without the wolf bellowing at her.

Peace was not to be had.

Her lover padded in, wearing jeans and a frown. His limp was always more noticeable when his mood was foul.

“Last time you came along, Seth clammed up.” She bit into a juicy green apple.

Don’t look at the half-dressed werewolf’s muscles. You can’t stay angry at the man’s ripped abs, and you know it.

“You’re staying home, if I have to find a leash,” she said.

He snarled. So she’d used one of the bad words. Get over it.

“And if I lock you in the bedroom?” he challenged.

“You wouldn’t dare.”

“I will if it means keeping you safe.”

“He’s a friend, Severo. Seriously, I’m adjusting to the possessive stuff, but you take it too far sometimes.”

“You have no idea what his mind-set is. And if he is a vampire, he is not the same friend you used to know. Don’t be stupid about this, Bella. You know better.”

She did know better.

Setting the apple on the counter, Bella stretched her arms along it and laid her head on an elbow. “I don’t want to believe it.” She stared at the framed picture tucked behind the toaster. “Don’t you have friends you worry about? Family?”

“I have no family. And friends are few and far between.”

“So who is this?” She tugged out the picture and displayed it to him.

His intake of breath made Bella stand up straight. In the picture, a pretty red-haired woman snuggled up to Severo, beaming, as was he. Which had startled her the first time she’d seen it. Severo was not a smiley fellow.

He seemed ready to grab the photo away but wasn’t sure how to do it.

“She means something to you. What’s her name? And why haven’t I met her? Is she an old girlfriend?”

“Enough!” He snatched the photo and studied it for long seconds before tucking it into a drawer. “She’s someone I used to know.”

“Really? Her picture is everywhere. Over by the TV, in the hallway. Down in the laundry room.”

“When have you been to the laundry room?”

“I like to chat with Heloise. Which has nothing to do with the question you’re trying to avoid. If she was a lover, I’d understand. We both had lives before meeting one another. I want to know who is important to you, Severo.
